Update: The birthday has been postponed to 29 November, 6:30pm at Parap Tavern.
Hello, for those people based in Darwin, where do you want to go this year for OzBargain's 18th?
Considering it will be held in November, we need to consider an indoor or covered area as it may rain.
Partners are more than welcome, but they will need to be a member of OzBargain. More information is available here, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/869902
Thanks
Jayme
Thanks Voe for the suggestions, Hopefully, more people will comment.
Hello Voe, it looks like it will just be you and I (and our family). I was thinking Parap Tavern at 6pm on Friday either 15, 22 or 29 of November 2024. What are you thoughts. Happy to hear you thoughts.
Thanks.
I'm available for all 3 dates, but happy to take the middle with 22 November.
Thank you Voe, booking has been confirmed for Friday, 22 November 2024, at Parap Tavern (6 guests · 18:45)
The online booking did not have an 6pm option, so I picked 18:45hrs.
Do we have date & venue confirmed?
Yes, The date is Friday, 22 November 2024 and venue is Parap Tavern (18:45 hrs).
Please update the title of your post and I will add your event to the list of events later tonight.
Thanks, Actioned.
Thanks Scotty, event is now registered. For all members attending, could you please register, this includes your partners registering too.
Wanted to go but scared that I might know everyone who is attending :(
Welcome, and we will see you there, feel free to invite your love ones, but please let me know and make sure they register.
Just another friendly reminder, if you partners (or any love ones) are coming, make sure they are registered. I will need to update the booking with Parap Tavern as I only booked for five guests.
Looking forward to seeing everyone on Friday :)
I am coming with my 2 kids, how can I register them?
Hey beardo, please note that the event timing has been postponed by a week.
I think the kids can probably be covered by the budget set determined by the number of users registered provided we don't exceed the limit. Currently set at 5 registrations Otherwise it'll probably be at your own additional cost.

Thanks Voe for the update. I believe Voe knows more in this area than I do.
I guess you will need to create an account with them each, them register then both. I am not too sure.
Hello Guys, I think it will be easier to cancel this year. Let me know if you have any objectives or comments and if no, I'll cancel this event end of today.
Hey JaymeRyan.
I hope you're well. I had replied to you private message offering to host, but unsure if you got the notification.
I am happy to act as host if you are unable to attend. I am not concerned if you wish to attend if you feel well enough. I had caught Covid for the 3rd time last month, and recovered in a couple of days. Low risk of reinfection so soon and there are no isolation requirements imposed by the government.
If you're still wanting to attend or host, I think delaying it a week to 29 November is also a good idea.
Cheers.
Thanks to admin staff for the help. The Date has been pushed forward to the Friday 29 November 2024, at 6:30pm. Sorry for the inconvenience I may have caused. The venue, Parap Tavern, has not changed.
I'm interested to go. I have a four year old. Can I bring her tomorrow night?
Hey Koplik8
It's been delayed to next week, as a co-host got Covid. I'm intending to bring my 3 year old. We'll see if we need to increase the number of seats, as I expect the kids will be mostly in the playground.
Hi Koplik8,
Friendly reminder to register yourself and any adult for the event. A registration allows for a meal and a drink up to $45 per register. Let us know if you are having issues. Don't need to register your children, but any adults that wish to attend.
Thanks
Hey @JaymeRyan. I miss read the date. I'm having surgery on 29/11. I could have made it if it was tonight. I'll come to the next one. Have a great night Darwin Ozbargainers :D
@JaymeRyan: @JaymeRyan not too bad. It all good until the anesthetic wears off lol
Hope you guys had a great dinner
Hello guys, looking to update the number of guests, does anyone need a highchair ect??
For those that haven't mentioned in the chat,
If you are bringing a guest that is not registered (children) can you let me know.
Adults must be registered for a free feed of $45 per register.
Hello, here is the menu from Parap Tavern which I found on their website.

Hello. Didn't recognise the username as you've changed it? but good to see you're organising again.
Somewhere with aircon would be great. I'm off travelling for work in the first week of November, but otherwise available for the rest of the month.
Not fussed with the venue really.
Some new-ish venues for consideration:
* The Cinema Collective - Flicks / Sweethearts
* Flora's Temper (open Friday/Saturday for dinner)
Casual options:
* Parap Tavern (indoor playground)
* Stokes Hill Wharf (varying options, but Sancho's for tacos and outdoor playground)
